BEAR AND WHALE SEARCH
 
Your guide is well versed in the flora and fauna of the region. Sit back and relax as he tells you all about the area, wildlife and fascinating geology.
 
BEAR AND WHALE SEARCH Alaska is probably one of the best places in the whole world to leave the dramas of daily life behind, get out into to the fresh air and rekindle your love for Mother Nature.

Set out with your wonderful guide as he takes you to the best bear viewing areas in all of Icy Strait. You'll travel by boat and get optimal views of the bears from out in the water. Many of the bears will walk along the shoreline and if you're lucky, you might even be able to see some of them fish for salmon!

You'll most likely see Alaskan brown bears (similar to grizzly bears). You'll be amazed at how cool these mammals are up close.

We will also proceed out further for whale viewing. Don't be surprised if we see humpbacks and orcas! We might even get to see sea lions, eagles, sea otters, puffins, porpoises and more wildlife!

All in all, a great day for those that want a once in a lifetime experience with a fabulous guide.

I can not say enough positive things about this excursion and our guide. While we only saw one bear, he sure did try hard to find one for us. We saw many whales very up close. I would highly recommend this over the cruise ship excursion because of the one on one experience. He did a great job and my family really will remember this experience.

I do not know how to express our admiration and appreciation of our guide and the way he handled and managed our excursion with him. We could not have asked for more or better service. He was superbly professional and personable. His boat was immaculate, in excellent mechanical condition, and very well suited to the purpose. He is obviously very experienced and well versed in wildlife behavior and observation and was able to combine his expertise, skill and equipment to provide my family with a very comfortable, exciting and memorable experience. I can not say enough good things about our trip with him.

We utilized your services for all four of our shore excursions. Icy Strait Point, Skagway, Juneau and Ketchikan were all superb. People were where they were supposed to be and the experiences were right on! On top of that, we had sunny skies in each port. I'm sure we'll be using you again.
